When you think about the Power Universe and its vast and varied characters, the ones who come to mind first are usually the big players.
Ghost. Tommy. Kanan. Tariq.
A series of men known by one name alone who shaped this Universe and made it into what it is today.
But for every big player, there's someone else beside them, a sidekick, if you will. Or better yet, a partner. Someone who helped them succeed and, for some, caused their eventual downfall.
There are many duos across the original Power and the three spinoffs currently airing, and we decided to look at some of the very best.

Creed and Black Panther director Ryan Coogler keeps adding to his slate of projects. He’s currently developing a reboot of the TV series The X-Files for Fox and is in production on an untitled supernatural thriller starring Michael B. Jordan for Warner Bros., a project that may or may not be about vampires fighting the KKK in the 1930s. A few days ago, we learned that Coogler is producing an adaptation of the Boom! Studios graphic novel series A Vicious Circle for Universal Pictures… and Deadline has also confirmed that Coogler is producing an adaptation of the Duane Swierczynski novel California Bear for 20th Century Studios.

The upcoming third season of “Power Book IV: Force” will be its last, according to star Joseph Sikora. But the actor, who leads the show as Tommy Egan, also seems to be teasing that a new project could come to the “Power” universe soon.
With “Power Book II: Ghost” having just entered its fourth and final season, the only current “Power” series continuing at Starz is “Book III: Raising Kanan,” which was renewed for a fifth season in March. (The original “Power” concluded in 2020.) However, a new prequel series titled “Origins” was also set up at the cabler in March following the announcement that “Force” showrunner Gary Lennon had extended his deal with Lionsgate Television to continue working on the franchise.

Starz’s Power Book IV: Force will conclude following the drama’s third season which is currently in production in Chicago. It’s lights out for Tommy (Joseph Sikora) and the gang but that doesn’t mean their stories are over.
As Deadline reported in March, Starz CEO Jeffrey Hirsch revealed plans to contain content costs by developing more new shows versus sustaining series longer as they become more expensive. The plan was implemented immediately as Starz announced the next day the development of a new prequel series Origin, following the Ghost (Omari Hardwick in the flagship series) and Tommy during their early years. The new show is similar to Power Book III: Raising Kanan, which centers on Power’s favorite foe, Kanan Stark (played by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson) during his younger years.

Universal Pictures has just announced (via Deadline) release dates – in some cases, new release dates for movies that are shifting around on their schedule – for five upcoming horror films… and every one of them happens to be a Blumhouse production. The movies in question are The Woman in the Yard, Drop, The Black Phone 2, M3GAN 2.0, and Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 – and we’re about to go through them one-by-one.
First up is the thriller The Woman in the Yard, which was once set to reach theatres on January 10, 2025, but was bumped out of that date so the Blumhouse reboot of Wolf Man could move from this October to January 17th. Jaume Collet-Serra is directing the film, which stars Danielle Deadwyler of The Devil to Pay and Till, Okwui Okpokwasili of The Exorcist: Believer and I Am Legend, and Russell Hornsby of The Hate U Give and Fences.

During a recent Emmys FYC conversation in Atlanta with Bmf showrunner Heather Zuhlke, stars Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., Da’Vinchi, Michole Briana White and Russell Hornsby — who respectively play Big Meech, Terry, and Flenory matriarch and patriarch Lucille and Charles — and executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, who had been less active with the network in recent years after several fallouts, was full of pride and commentary about the Starz drama’s current success and future plans.
There’s no denying that Jackson putting his hip hop fame and street cred behind Power, the series essentially about a drug kingpin named Ghost (Omari Hardwick) who wanted to get out the game and become a respectable businessman, changed the premium network’s fortune. Power reportedly increased Starz’s subscribers base by as much as 40 percent.
From that came three successful spinoffs — Power Book II: Ghost; Power Book III: Raising Kanan and Power Book IV: Force.

The Power universe expanded considerably following the demise of the original series in 2020.
After the news that Power Book II: Ghost would conclude with its forthcoming fourth season, there were questions about what that meant for Power Book III: Raising Kanan.
Thankfully, Starz was quick to shut down the end date buzz for the prequel series by announcing a renewal for Power Book III: Raising Kanan Season 5.
The news dropped while production on Power Book III: Raising Kanan Season 4 was underway, meaning that fans still have at least two seasons of the show to look forward to.
“We know that our fans can’t get enough of ‘Raising Kanan.’ As the inevitable evolution of this young man into a killer plays out, we knew we had much more backstory to share in this ever-escalating family saga,” said Kathryn Busby, president of original programming for Starz.

Netflix's Griselda is one of the best hits of 2024 so far, and there's a good reason that the show is breaking ground. Fans and critics alike have sung praises for the six-episode limited series.
The biographical crime drama tells the story of The Cocaine Godmother Griselda Blanco, who ruled the Miami underworld in the '70s and '80s and helped establish cocaine trade links between Colombia and the United States.
Sofia Vergara's role as the titular character is highly praised, and many want more to do with this crime drama. While we may not get more Griselda, there are several shows to watch that are similar to the series.

When Power touched down on Starz 10 years ago, it was clear the premium cabler had found a big hit.
After a decade on the air, the main show is over, three spinoffs are on the air, and a fourth is on the way.
Power: Origins scored a formal pickup this week, and the concept is sure to get fans talking.

Ghost and Tommy are getting their own “Power” origins story. As Starz continues to span the “Power” universe into multiple series, the network is ready to announce the official fourth spinoff. The network confirmed Wednesday that it is developing the “Power” prequel series “Origins,” which will follow the beginning story of characters Ghost and Tommy, played in the original “Power” by Omari Hardwick and Joseph Sikora.
Sascha Penn (“Power Book III: Raising Kanan”) will serve as the executive producer for “Origins,” which comes from Lionsgate TV. (It’s unclear whether it will actually be called “Power Book V: Origins.”)
The first “Power,” which debuted in 2014, starred Hardwick as James St. Patrick, a nightlife entrepreneur who is also a massively successful cocaine distributor known on the streets as “Ghost.” He rules that empore alongside his childhood friend Tommy, played by Sikora.

With Starz set to become a pure play standalone public company by year end, CEO Jeff Hirsch is out talking up its strong points and how it competes in a crowded streaming landscape — price increases, bundling, and most importantly, he said, containing content costs with a slate of new shows in development as later season series get costly.
“When seasons go from one to two to three to four [seasons], three to four is where the cost really pops because most of the actors get bigger raises, and you have to really manage that. So, you have to have in your portfolio of development shows that can actually replace shows as they get into later seasons,” he said at a Deutsche Bank media conference today, providing one of the most blunt assessments of a practice introduced by Netflix and embraced by other streamers where shows produced under the Cost Plus model...

Spoiler alert!
The end of Power Book IV: Force Season 2 Episode 10 was epic. A fast-paced hour with plenty of jaw-dropping moments, the final hour put a profound exclamation point on a successful second effort.
The heart and soul of the series lies with Tommy Egan, its main player and the source of so many riveting moments throughout the season and in its final moments. And we were thrilled to get some time with the magnetic Joseph Sikora to talk about it all.
From Tommy and Diamond's partnership to Tommy's relationship woes and his appreciation for showrunner Gary Lennon, we covered a lot of ground in this informative chat.
This one's for you, Power Force fanatics!
I wanted to start with Tommy and Diamond because that was a central dynamic in the second season. Their partnership worked out, but something was missing between the two of them.
I don't know if...

Tommy was bound to take an L eventually.
In a season where he made move after move to secure his Chicago legacy, his personal life ended up taking the biggest hit during Power Book IV: Force Season 2 Episode 10, which by Power standards was a little more subdued than we may be used to.
While Tommy may have won some battles, he had no one to celebrate with.
There weren't many sprawling shootouts or even big fireworks between Tommy and his biggest adversaries. It's probably because Tommy's at a different place now—a place where all-out war isn't the answer.
Wars are costly and debilitating for all sides, even the ones that win, and Tommy has been content to meddle in others wars this season while doing his best to keep business at the forefront.
But I have to wonder, after seeing how things played out, whether or not all Tommy's...

Hey,"Power Book IV: Force" fans. We hope you guys totally enjoyed episode 10 tonight, especially since it was indeed the final episode of Power Book IV: Force's current season 2. That means you guys will not get to see another new episode for quite a while. Possibly, forever. Yep, unfortunately, Starz has not yet confirmed that a new season 3 will be happening. However, what we can do is take a look at the numbers that Power Book IV: Force season 2 put up for Starz and try to make an educated guess as to what they may or may not do. According to the Live Nielsen ratings, Power Book IV: Force season 2 averaged 251,000 Live viewers per episode, and a 0.06 ratings score for the 18-49 year old demographics.

Vic really had Tommy fooled.
For as intuitive and shrewd as Tommy can be, he's juggling many different hats, and Vic's managed to endear himself to the perpetually suspicious man.
But Tommy found out the truth on, Power Book IV: Force Season 2 Episode 9 and we can all guess where things may go from here.
Could Tommy be slipping?
It's a valid question to ask right now, given how wrong he's been about Vic. We're used to Tommy being seven steps ahead at all times and knowing what's coming seemingly before anyone else.
And he's still that man, but his rat radar may be slightly off.
When he heard there may be a snitch among them, his thoughts immediately drifted to Jenard, not even sparing a thought toward Vic.
And I get it. He watched Vic Flynn kill a Fed in cold blood and live to tell the tale. That's not...
